5 days before the end of the transfer window, the Marseille city is in excitement. If Hamed Junior Traoré arrived in Marseille this Thursday and will pass his medical visit, OM is still far from having finished its transfer window since 3 to 4 players are still expected. The Defense site is obviously a priority for Medhi Benatia and the Marseille recruitment cell. For many weeks, Joel Ordonez has been announced.

However, the arrival of Ordonez is not questioned, the latter is always a priority for Marseille. According to our information, it is towards the Premier League that OM could find a shoe at its foot with an old acquaintance of Ligue 1, a certain Nayef Aguerd.
Recorders of OM for Aguerd
It must be said that the former central defender of Stade Rennais showed good things this season in the Real Sociedad jersey, where he had been sent on loan by West Ham. Author of 36 meetings in all competitions with Spanish training, the Moroccan international (55 selections – 2 goals) attracted the eyes.

But the native of Kenitra keeps a good memory of his passage in Ligue 1 (91 matches – 9 goals and 4 assists) and his passages to the Orange Vélodrome de Marseille. This renewed Marseille interest in Nayef Aguerd, after a first approach in early June, rebatted the cards. One thing is certain, if the Marseille club manages to get their hands on it, it will make a big hit by recovering an experienced element, a cloakroom leader and a hell of a client on the stopped kicks. To follow.
